Hope for Diabetics

Diabetes Conference - Dec 2014

Congreso Controlado la diabetes y sus complicaciones mas severas

I have no date for the conference but will be keeping up with developments

Before the conference
Dec 8 and 9, 2014 – Corso Internacional Melia Habana, Habana.
This is designed to demonstrate Heberprot P and a newly developed surgery with minimal access which clears up foot problems which may develop into ulcers.

I have a little more information on this surgery.

If you are interested in attending the conference and the event at the Melia Habana, we are happy to arrange flights (including for US visitors), meet and greet, transfers, hotel or homestay accommodations with meals. I hope to have conference fees in the next few weeks.

Please note this conference will be for medical professionals and other involved in the professional treatment of patients with diabetes.

HEBERPROT-P

Foot ulcers leading to amputation are one of the most horrific side effects of diabetes. The operation, the recovery, the loss of mobility, the loss of independence and the constant worry that what occurred once will happen again, are all specters that diabetics live with.

In Cuba the Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology has developed a cure for these ulcers.

Known as HEBERPROT-P the drug is injected into the ulcer site over a period of six to eight weeks. The drug was developed for large ulcers which would almost automatically lead to amputation; however treatment is also available for much less advanced ulcers – with the expectation that controlling and healing early is better than waiting.
